Yeah, it's obvious you are a Trump worshiper; you even mimic his sophomoric catch phrases. I am sure you know plenty about being "little." Good luck with your deity, who supported TARP, the bailouts, favors affirmative action, likes what Planned Parenthood is doing, was against guns before he was suddenly for them, wants the government in your iPhone, and made YUGE contributions to the Democratic Party for decades.
I’ll try but some of them places is far apart and my 1975 Subaru don’t run so good.

I believe that the results are kept secret until each county has finished. Announced tonite.
Certainly, party officials know who is winning ... as each caucus ends.
LEWISTON MAINE
A combination of regional voting locations and strong turnout by the GOP is leading to busy presidential caucuses across Maine.
Many first-time caucus-goers were among the throngs who turned out in Chelsea, where Republicans from capital-area towns gathered Saturday. Some people had to park a half-mile from the school, and then had to wait in the cold to get inside.
The scene is playing out at many of the other 21 caucus locations.
Deborah Carey, of Readfield, said she was happy to see the big turnout. She said Republicans need a candidate who’ll “get in there and fight.”
“There I was, sittin’ on the ‘Group W’ bench, with the Trump stabbers ...”
Encouraging report, cP ... thanx
Trump did NOT support or endorse the Chinese crackdown. He just observed accurately that their show of brute force was successful in ending the revolt. Was he factually incorrect?
come on, six of one, half a dozen of the other, it’s a NO WIN comment.
he’s allowed to say dumb things. That was one of them.
there’s a MILLOIN examples to use of a country using force.
that wasn’t one of them. That was in poor taste.
hitler put down the ghetto rebellion. How would you have felt if he used that example?
there’s would have rightly been outrage.
I give Cruz wrong when he is. What scares me about most trump supporters is that they JUST CANNOT bring themselves to do it.
and that is and always has been dangerous.
This site lays out the facts regarding Trump donation history.
I have heard some pretty compelling cases as to why TARP had to be approved, and at the same time have heard emotional arguments as to why TARP was not needed. Unfortunately, TARP has only encouraged banks to do even more of the same that required the bailout in the first place. Problem is there is no way they can be bailed out when it collapses again because of how big the problem has now grown to. So TARP turned out to be just a delay and at the same time an encouragement to create an even bigger problem down the road.
One thing I can't understand is why Ted keeps calling it Obama's TARP bailout. Surely he is smart enough to know that it was Bush who secured the votes for the TARP bailout, before Obama even took office. But of course if he can tie Donald Trump and Obama together it makes Donald look like he is an Obama supporter. I suppose that works for some people who will take that association as evidence .
Rand Paul was the most vocal opponent of TARP. Cruz was an opponent of everything and could be because he knew how it would play to the conservatives he was courting. He also knew there were enough votes to pass without his support anyway.
Donald Trump may have offered vocal support, but was in no position to sway the outcome in either direction. Had Cruz won the issue stifling TARP and the result was as terrible as some were indicating, then Cruz would have ended up with egg on his face.
I was not impressed with Donald's condemnation of Scalia over his dissenting opinion offered for rejecting affirmative action. I personally agreed with Scalia's dissent and position, but again Donald was a private citizen so I wasn't really concerned what he had said. I do not agree with everything Donald has done or said in the past. I am supportive of what he has said recently.
As for gun control, he is not for confiscation. He did say at the 2008 CPAC Convention that he was for assault rifle bans, which of course I roundly rejected at that time. He now gives a different take and I applaud him on evolving on the issue. I'll take him at his word that this is now his belief. You choose not to, and that is your right. I don't condemn you for it, I just disagree that Donald is a serial liar.
I also support Apple gaining access to the terrorist phone and turning over the data to the FBI. However, I support that they do it on their own and remain in complete control of the entire operation while doing so. It is within their capability to do so, and still not provide the government the capability to use it on their own to invade others at their whim and desire. Apple is promising a future phone that even they will not be able to fulfill such a request. I have no problem with that, but that is not the current situation. They are capable of and should provide all contents they can provide on this one phone, and only the contents of this one phone.
I thought this was interesting and worth sharing. Perhaps you have even this video already, I hadn't.
Big turnout in oxford county Me, Lots of trump supporters, a table for Cruz and some Cruz supporters. They had to beg for anyone to get up and talk for Rubio or Kasich but did eventually find some people.
Now, Maine is actually half caucus/ half primary now.
Secret ballot to obligate first round votes, and a concurrent caucus to appoint local delegates to the state convention to select national delegate.
Go Trump
